Murine models have become increasingly popular to study various aspects of cardiovascular diseases due to their ease of genetic manipulation. Unfortunately, there has been little effort put into describing the distribution of autonomic nerves in the mouse heart, making it difficult to compare current findings from clinical and experimental models related to cardiovascular diseases. Furthermore, determination of the requirements for the development of this system and its maintenance in adult mice remains largely unexplored. This study represents the first detailed mapping of cholinergic neuroanatomy of the mouse heart based on immunohistochemical staining using true cholinergic markers. We found cholinergic innervation …

Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the effects of low and moderate doses of dexmedetomidine infusions by evaluating hemodynamic and neuroendocrine responses in patients undergoing elective transurethral surgery. Materials and Methods: Fifty patients were randomly allocated to receive 0.45 (Group 1) or 0.6 (Group 2) µg kg^{-1} hr^{-1} dexmedetomidine infusion 10 minutes before induction of anesthesia. Heart rate, blood pressures, ETCO2 and peripheral oxygen saturation values and parameters of non-invasive cardiac output were monitored. Measurement times were baseline (I), after dexmedetomidine infusion (II), after thiopental induction (III), after intubation (IV) and at 10-minute intervals during desflurane anesthesia. …
